Calvin and Jobs
Calvin and Hobbes ties with Bloom County as my all-time favorite strip cartoon. Two Xmas’ ago, my friends bought me the fancy collected edition and I spent a week pouring over it. Killer imagination. Killer.
And while notorious recluse and rights reserver Bill Watterson would probably unleash all kinds of fury at the Apple-based, real-world intruding, Silicon Valley send-up, Calvin and Jobs, for those who follow the tech industry, it’s unique combination of nostalgia and “inside baseball” humor is compelling.

If you liked it so much, what were you doing pouring stuff all over it!?

Calvin and Hobbes and Bloom County were my favorites too. I have the C&H collectors’ edition. I wish they’d come out with one for Bloom County.
